Make Money as a College Student

College Students your luck is about to change. There is so much earning potential for you on the internet that you'll never have to worry about buying books next semester, or bother to rent a lesser apartment just to save money.


I have the greatest tactic for making that badly needed money and doing it whenever you have time! The best part is that it is free to try, and free to use, and free to make money!


It's SO EASY to make money on this site, and the following article is a step by step solution to make an easy $235 a month, (fast, easy money) with some added information that can bring you unlimited earnings, depending upon the time and ingenuity you can spend on making money. You get paid to take surveys at home, complete trial offers(see below for strategy), and even earn money off of the people you refer(up to 30%).

They do not ask for a credit card. The only personal information that you have to give them is a valid phone number (so they can validate you are real), and a valid address (so they can send you a check). Oh, they also require a birthdate, because you need to be at least 18 years old to start earning money. No further personal information is needed.

I've always stayed away from these kind of make money at home websites, but a friend referred me to this site and I can't get enough!!! I have to say I'm addicted to making money at home through Cash Crate.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Computer
  • Internet Access
  • Ingenuity
  • (optional)Paper
  • (optional)Business Cards(cheap)
  • (optional)Printer
  1. Step 1

    Surveys - make fast money
    Start making easy money right away by taking surveys from your home computer. There are two kinds of surveys that can earn you money.

    You can take 2 very simple "daily surveys" and earn $.80 each. That alone gives you $48 of fast, easy money each month for about 20 minutes of work at home each day.

    After that, you can take additional surveys based upon the information you choose to provide which pay out anywhere from $.30 to $5.00. Yes...$5.00 for taking a 10 minute survey about your opinions!!! If you simply take 5 easy surveys at $.75 each...that's another $3.75 a day, or another $112.50 each month!

    So at this point you've spent at the most 90 minutes and you've made $160 each month. But wait...there's more!!!

  2. Step 2

    Complete Trial Offers

    $160 a month so far...and we're just getting started. This step will have you skipping the survey part and going for the big money. Don't be fooled though, this part requires more delicate handling.

    Corporations, such as DirecTV and Netflix, are prepared to offer you CASH BACK for signing up for free trials of their services.

    These cash back incentives range from $3.00 to $125.00!!!

    The trick is that once you've gotten credit for signing up for the service...you can cancel right away! There's no obligation to join after this. I've had a few of these offers give me a phone call, but all you have to do is ask them nicely to take your name off of the list. They are obligated legally to do so.

    I have to warn you that some of these offers require an electronic s & h charge for their trial offers...but I'll gladly pay $1.95 to earn $15 lol.

    So we were at $160...let's say you complete a free trial that pays $5 every other day. You have added $75 to your total. You're now up to $235 earned EVERY MONTH!!! Oh, I forgot to mention the rest.

  3. Step 3

    Referrals
    This part is really addictive. This is the step that lets you earn more on the previous steps. By getting more referrals, you can increase the money that you make AND increase the number of offers that are available to you.

    There are many ways to get more referrals.

    -You can take out free ads in various locations on the internet.
    -You can get family and friends to join
    -You can hand out business cards walking down the street(you can earn money through an offer for FREE business cards also)
    -You can print flyers and hang them up on college campuses or at your local supermarkets.
    -You can create a Squidoo page, Facebook ad, Myspace Page, or any other way you can think of to advertise for the site.

    The best part is, you earn a percentage of your referrals earnings! Once one of your referrals has reached $10 earned...YOU get a bonus of $3. Depending upon the level of your membership(a.k.a. the number of refs you have), you can earn 20-35% of your referral's earnings AND 10-20% of THEIR referral's earnings!!!

    So now, with a little bit of ingenuity, your $235 a month can become $500, $1000, even $2000 a month if you put the extra time into it.

Tips & Warnings
  • As a college student you have the ability to get a TON of referrals and quickly to make your earnings skyrocket!!!
  • No Credit Card needed unless you choose to do certain offers. About 90% of the offers are free and DO NOT require one
  • No entry fees at all
